1895 Electrical motor coach Cfe 2/2 No 11

Electrical motor coach Cfe 2/2 no 11 Orbe-Chavornay ОС 1895 The motor coach of the first standard-gauge railway of Switzerland is constructed like a streetcar. The starting resistances under the coach’s floor were switched on and off from the two open driver’s cab platforms. They converted the surplus current into heat. This method permitted a sensitive adjustment of the running speed. The two motors are firmly connected with the axle and lightly sprung by means of a unilateral suspension on the coach's body. SIG 10,6 t 50 kW direct current 600 V speed 30 km/h 20 seats standing room for 6 persons restored by CFF
